In a nut shell, people are creating film trailers with AI and sharing on YouTube. Film studios are now asking Google for a slice of the profits as it's their intellectual property.

To my knowledge, no one technically owns the AI made material, since it wasn't made by a person. Thus no one should be getting any ad revenue from these videos since no one actually owns it.

DougDoug did a video on AI copyright a few months ago and is rather informative. Would recommend.

Google is earning ad revenue. So should Google get to keep it all then?

That is a good question that I do not know. But since they're the ones hosting it on their servers, they may have the most legitimate claim to the ad revenue since it does cost money to keep the trailers on their servers and to stream it to viewers.

I am not a lawyer, though. This is just pure speculation on my part.
